User test: Easier to make a personal Web page

   On the User Test menu, which I hope some of you can see on 
the login menus (as far as I know, anyone can volunteer for User 
Test, and the more the merrier), there's now an item marked 
"Create a Personal Web Site." 

   This same item is also on the Information Provider test menu.
Any feedback would be good, before it goes on the general user
menus for everyone to bash away at.

   This saves Web Admin from manually typing "makeweb bx999 Joe 
Q. Public" for each Web site request, which isn't quite trivial 
even though it looks like it, since this has got well up into 
the hundreds of them now. 

   The program on the menu finds your SCN account name 
automatically (for the e-mail address on your home page), so all 
you have to do is to type the name or nickname that you'd like 
to appear on your page (this is especially handy for the 
ubiquitous SCN User). You can change it later with Pico, from 
the "Work with Your Files" menu, or upload pages made with 
whatever tools you prefer to use on your PC.
